HsO Travel Awards

The HSO Travel Award Program fulfills our goal of increasing opportunities for professional development of students by assisting HsO members in presenting their research at local, regional, or national scientific conferences. There are two award deadlines per year, May 15th and November 15th at 5 p.m. PST.

Full details on this award, including the scoring criteria for applicants can be found here.

This $400 award is given to students in residence (spending at least half time) at the Hatfield Marine Science Center, in recognition of service to the HsO, research excellence, and promise. Funding for these travel awards comes from HsO fundraising, with matching funds from the OSU Foundation. Winners are asked to present their research at a weekly Hatfield Symposium the following year, as well as continuing to perform service to HMSC.
